Precipitation Of Gold, Silver, And Copper From Cyanide Solutions On Activated Charcoal., Rayworth Francis Howe

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Charcoal has been known for a considerable length of time to have the property of recovering gold, silver, and copper from cyanide solutions of these metals. Quantita­tive data that may shed light on the mechanism of the re­moval of these metals is very limited except that char­coal in a form known as activated has the power to abstract gold and silver in considerable quantities from the above solutions.
